Cross-linguistic interaction is a prominent issue in third language (L3) acquisition. The belief that typological similarities are the driving force behind transfer source languages has been rebutted repeatedly. For example, notwithstanding the fact that Dutch–German grammatical parallels are much stronger …

Routine maintenance of commercial aircraft requires reliable detection and repair of corrosion to ensure structural integrity. Post-repair inspections are commonly performed using manual ultrasonic point measurements of residual thickness, a process that is time-intensive and constrained by limitations …

Introduction: Nursing education traditionally teaches skill acquisition in isolated practice drills and guided by step-by-step protocols. While these approaches may seem to provide a solid foundation, they do not adequately bridge the gap between a controlled learning environment and the reality of nursing …

De Smart Industry dankt haar benaming aan de slimme techniek die zij implementeert en benut. Maar wat doet nieuwe techniek met het werk van medewerkers, zowel inhoudelijk alsook mentaal? In dit impactinterview zet een aantal praktisch ingestelde wetenschappers hun inzichten en handvatten op een rij. …

The visibility of sustainable energy measures is a channel of social influence, a means of conspicuous consumption, and affects the aesthetics of an environment. This study investigates how the visibility of sustainable household energy measures (i.e., installation of renewable energy and energy efficient …

Household food waste has a significant impact on the environment and to diminish this, understanding the effectiveness of different types of interventions, alone and in combination, is key. To better understand what makes waste-reduction interventions effective, we need to disentangle different intervention …

Physiotherapists recognise the biopsychosocial model as important in treating chronic pain. However, the adoption of this model in Dutch private practice is limited. Participatory action research, including co-design methods and an explicit perspective on workplace learning, may be helpful in developing …

The current scale of energy generation stands in marked contrast to its management. Wind turbines operate only when both wind conditions and energy demand are sufficient. In cases where wind is available but demand is lacking, the turbines remain idle. This study demonstrates that a transition to a continuous …

This article discusses the development of simulation models in the energy education of tomorrow, in order to gain deeper insight into the functioning of technical installations. The related research focuses on designing a method to simulate complex hydraulic systems and to incorporate these simulations …

In the current context, university education is increasingly defined by the acquisition of skills. New mechanisms and types of learning are constantly emerging that aim to form skills defined as integrated acquisitions. Digital tools applied in the implementation of energy projects are not just essential …
